I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Accessorize Boho Nail Wardrobe Red

Another of these little wonders.
Top row 3rd from left.



This is easy to use, easy to apply and fairly quick drying. Despite being quite a small bottle (5ml) the brush is really good and lid is nice to hold making it easy to paint the nails. It's a lovely shade of red, but it's prone to scuffing so best use a top coat with it.

Bluecross Snowman Bright Purple

This bottle just looks so cute!



And with a top coat *gasp*



This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying. It dried dull, so that's why I added the top coat because I had expected a shiny one! It's a nice colour but do prefer it with the top coat. Lasted well.

This is one of these colours that I picked up cheap not that long ago.





This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying. How lovely does it look? It's a turquoise/teal colour, with a subtle gold-like tint to it (captured in the bottle pic). Lasted well and I love it!

Avon Chilling Teal

This is one of the more recent Avon polishes that came out at the end of last year.





This is easy to use, easy to apply and VERY slow drying. It took ages and even after about 1 hour it was prone to denting :-( It is, however, a lovely colour with a subtle blue shimmer to it. Once it did dry, it lasted well! I'm really liking the colour.

Hedy's Ma.nish.ma Blaster

I popped this on top of Inglot 985. Stunning!
